Be a king...

A new campaign in Oslo to make people use the litter boxes all over town. They call the campaign "Pimp our city" and I'm probably too old, because I don't like the name at all. I guess it's directed mostly at younger people, and the video tells you that you're "king" if you throw things in the litter box and not outside of it.

Closed for the winter

... and nothing on the menu.

From Bygdøy in Oslo. This little shop is probably only open during summer time, when lots of people visit Bygdøy to sunbathe and swim in the fjord.

Interferens - a memorial

This is from Bygdøy in Oslo, where this piece of art called "Interferens" is placed there as a memorial for all the tsunami victims in December 2004.

The sculpture is made by John Audun Hauge in 2007 after a competition on behalf of the Norwegian government.

Grafitti

From the metro in Oslo: An advert - and a comment. The advert says "You are 5 questions away from 10 millions!" and the comment beneath says "We fill the city with crappy ads. Hooray for us in JCDecaux!" (JCDecaux is an advertising company.)

Busy street

Lots of traffic at Røa, west in Oslo.

Mistakes can be lovely

My son sometimes likes to borrow my camera. Some photos turn out well, others don't. This photo was supposed to be a close-up of autumn leaves, but he didn't quite manage to focus. It still turned up quite nice, I think. It's like a day dream when you just stare at nothing and the focus is inside you instead of what you're looking at.

Autumn is here

I'm sorry for ignoring this blog for some time.

Autumn is here and in many ways it's my favourite season. I love the crisp, clear air and the coloured trees. We've had days with really lovely weather and now some really grey and wet days. All the changes in nature makes it interesting to photograph, so I'm sure you'll see more autumn photos here on Oslo Daily Photo.
